From the record, first bail application filed by the petitioner has been dismissed by this Court on 07.12.2016 on merits. As per the FIR, amount of about `9.50 lakhs has been paid by the complainant to Aarti as she induced the complainant to get the employment for sons of the complainant.

CRM No.M-25104 of 2017 -2In the earlier order, it was written that petitioner is required for custodial interrogation. In view of above facts, I do not find it a fit case where petitioner is entitled to benefit of anticipatory bail. Otherwise also, no changed circumstance is there for granting the bail. Therefore, finding no merit in the present petition, the same is dismissed.
